If people from Sunderland are known as mackems.




Were the kids from Whitburn and Seaburn the people bullied at school? Burnies to me were where you pulled your victim's underpants so hard between their legs their groin hurt like hell for a week afterwards. :lol:

And they've adopted the name?!! :eek:
